My sources tell me that the guys feel bad for what happened.

Guaranteed easy win on Tuesday

Rau is playing pretty well in the AHL, he's probably the next in line if Shaw doesn't start producing soon.

I'm not 100% sure since I didn't particularly pay attention to him, but I'd guess Shaw was out there to play Hayes last season role. Big body to the front of the net.

Plenty of players more capable of that at the NHL level on the team.

I agree, just trying to make some sense out of it.

Maybe I was watching a different game then everyone else, but I thought he played real well tonight.

He was one of the first guys in the team to start bringing energy tonight. Really crashing and banging, also being a solid net front presence.
I thought he was a lot more noticeable out there than Brickley.

Yeah but thats not what we need we already have Howden and Brickley to do such things. We need someone that can produce and hes not it.

Could have and should have been closed directly imo.

Should i start a new account? AndersonFan558?

Dominated in the faceoff circle. 70% to 30%

I thought he clearly outplayed both.

It's pretty hard to change a players game and get them to do things that is out of their abilities. Shaw isn't a pure scorer. He's a crash and banger type player.

Yeah for sure and thats why i would rather have Kyle Rau up here instead to see if he can produce at this level.

Barkov and Bolland were money tonight.

Main thread is closed. We can now resume the boring winning thing we were doing.

No reason to lament this loss. Remember last year we had a streak and then got shelled by Jets. From that we listed for 3 weeks and lost the season. Important test is rebounding and getting back into the win column, we can't afford another losing streak.

 

[batting1k]

Someone plz pull out the stats for record when we score 3 and record when we score less than 3.

4-10-3 when scoring 2 or less

8-0-1 when scoring 3 or more

 

[FLpanthers16]

4-10-3 when scoring 2 or less

8-0-1 when scoring 3 or more

Ugh thats pretty bad

Another positive is the Sens lost 4-1 tonight. Should be an interesting game come Tuesday.

 

[batting1k]

Ugh thats pretty bad

Sorry, make that 5-10-3 with 2 or less goals scored in regulation

 

[FLpanthers16]

Sorry, make that 5-10-3 with 2 or less goals scored in regulation

Yeah thats something we really need to work on. Can't rely on the offense scoring 3 goals every game bc thats not happening.


Ohhh well hopefully we can manage out some wins at home bc our record at home is pretty meh tbh.

excellent

The guys shouldn't feel down on themselves after this game as besides the first ten minutes of the 1st Period, I thought they played a pretty damn good game. Overall, I think it was a much better effort than in Nashville or Columbus, but the pucks didn't bounce our way tonight and did in those two games.

Huberdeau I think had his best game of the season and the top line was flying. I never want to see Gallant pair Campbell and Mitchell again as they were on the ice for three of the Devils goals. The winning streak had to end at some point. It just sucks that it was against a team neck-and-neck with us in the race.

The game on Tuesday should be a good one as both teams are coming off of losses and the Sens are right ahead of us in the standings. Hopefully a decent-sized crowd attends too as it's during the week and against an unpopular opponent.
